Laminated illustrated wrappers, 4to, 27 cm. 160 pp, 255 plates and ills. From the blurb: " 'A solid introduction to an honored art. . . Every step of the process is logically described in words even the rankest amateur can follow. From tools and adhesives to single-sheet binding, the reader is instructed in the various methods of the craft, whether binding a paperback or a treasured first edition. Librarians will find the last chapter, 'Book Repairs/ especially useful. . .Excellent photos and illustrations."- The Booklist. This book, with over 250 photographs, drawings and diagrams, and a concise, lucid text, gives details of book sewing of all types -antique, "flexible, " outside cords, lockstitch, whipstitch, sewing on tapes, buried cords - and goes on to the modern practice of "perfect" binding in which the bound book is composed of single sheets. You will learn how to: Make end papers to suit the contents and quality of the book; Pad for a plain hollow back or false bands; Attach headbands; Case in; Board library style (instead of casing in); Cover with book cloth, buckram, artificial leather, cloth-backed plastic, fabric and leather, in full-, half-, and quarter-binding style; Add titling and decorate with gold leaf, gold and metal foils, and printed labels. By the time you have come to the end of Manly Banister's manual of hand bookbinding, you will know almost everything about the craft and will gain new respect for all books and their bindings." Good.
